I agree ...
try Stalevo as a constant release, you should be evening out the Ldopa rush as much as possible.
I know it is a personal thing to decide whether to have DBS but with the associated risks of brain surgery you have to be 110% sure. This form of communication is not ideal but you sure don't sound 110% sure to me.
Personally I would try every drug option, the fact that your Neuro hasn't even suggested CR drugs but has suggested major brain surgery staggers me. I wonder at peoples motivations sometimes and I would seek advice from another MDS.
No one will ever persuade me that DBS is anything other than a last resort.
Neil.
